A solid sphere of mass ' \(m\) ' and radius ' \(r\) ' is allowed to roll without slipping from the highest point of an inclined plane of length ' \(L\) ' and makes an angle \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal. The speed of the particle at the bottom of the plane is \(v_1\). If the angle of inclination is increased to \(45^{\circ}\) while keeping \(L\) constant. Then the new speed of the sphere at the bottom of the plane is \(v_2\). The ratio \(v_1^2: v_2^2\) is:

Correct Answer

(A) \(1: \sqrt{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation





using WET
\(\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{g}}=\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{f}}-\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{i}} \\
& \mathrm{Mg} \mathrm{~L} \sin \theta=\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{f}}-\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{i}}
\end{aligned}\)
K.E. in pure rolling \(\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mV}_{\mathrm{cm}}^2+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{cm}} \omega^2\)
\(\begin{aligned}
& =\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mV}^2+\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{2}{5} \mathrm{mR}^2 \frac{\mathrm{~V}^2}{\mathrm{R}^2} \\
& \frac{7}{10} \mathrm{mV}^2
\end{aligned}\)
\(\mathrm{mgL} \sin \theta=\frac{7}{10} \mathrm{mV}_{\mathrm{f}}^2-0\)
\(\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{f}}^2 \propto \sin \theta \\
& \left(\frac{\mathrm{~V}_1}{\mathrm{~V}_2}\right)^2=\frac{\sin \theta_1}{\sin \theta_2}=\frac{\sin 30^{\circ}}{\sin 45^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}
\end{aligned}\)
